Default How to fix the following errors when pressing "build solution" in VS2022??
Can someone please help me get rid of these errors/warnings so I can finish my mod? I'm not entirely sure what I did wrong, I tried deleting the DDLs and re-adding them but it didnt work. I can't find where a duplicate is at?? I'm new to modding fyi!!

Have you succeeded in building a mod previously? I admit that I've never seen that error. In my VS, I see the dlls under References under the project in the sidebar. What do you see there?

No this is my first ever mod I've created.
I was able to fix all of the errors but now I have a few warnings showing up. Here they are:
(When I fixed the errors it allowed me to build the solution and continue but when I try to load the mod into my game my game just crashes.)

Those are still indicators that you've added those DLLs twice.

hey sorry for late response I was gone on vaca.
I was able to fix all errors and warnings. But now when I load the mod into my game my game just crashes upon loading. My mod doesn't conflict with any other mods so what could possibly be going wrong?

Hmm. It sounds like something fundamental has not been done. What tutorial are you following?

If you follow a good tutorial line-by-line, this should come together.

It seems like you have created the project incorrectly. I assume you have checked Pure Script Modding Tutorial and Creating Game Compatible Visual Studio Project Tutorial.

Your project type must be Class Library (.NET Framework), not Class Library, and it must target .NET Framework v2.0.
mscorlib.dll, System.dll, and System.Xml.dll must be extracted from the game files, and these ones must be referenced. You cannot reference Microsoft's original assemblies. The second tutorial also explains how to reference the game's own mscorlib.dll.

update: I fixed everything and now I'm able to head into the game... now there's a new issue.
The mod/new interaction won't appear when I'm clicking on a sim and looking in the pie menu. Here's my code:

Ensure you added [assembly: Tunable] to AssemblyInfo.cs (under Properties) and don't forget to include the tunable XML file associated with the script.
Your code seems to be fine.

I'm a bit confused on what you mean? The properties in S3PE or in Visual studio? Sorry for being really slow

"Properties" is found on the right. And "AssemblyInfo.cs" is found under it.
When you open AssemblyInfo.cs, you'll have to add "[assembly: Tunable]" if you haven't.

It works just fine for me. Are you certain it doesn't work? You might have forgotten to close the package file while starting the game.
